TIL: debug = TRUE argument for element_text() in #ggplot2 "aids visual debugging by drawing a solid rectangle behind the complete text area, and a point where each label is anchored" 🤯
I don't know how I've never seen this before, it's super helpful!

ALT Line plot of lifespans of 10 women in science who changed the world, faceted by profession. The plot shows how the debug = TRUE argument places a solid colored rectangle around the facet labels. The rectangles are cream-colored with a yellow triangle on the top left corner where the text is anchored.

Nerd humor. @RikaGorn and I were joking about needing a trunk for all our data junk in the warehouse. This morning I wake up to a new analytics warehouse named "DS_TRUNK" and I can't stop laughing. Can't wait for 'create table as junk in ds_trunk' 🤣🤣
so i have a shinyapp that uses downloadHandler() to render an rmd and let the user save it. When it renders for the user, i also want to save a copy of the same file to a google drive folder. Not even sure where to start or if this can happen inside downloadHandler() #rstats

Medical puzzle:
Take Black vs. White patients with similar knee x-rays
Why do Black patients have more pain?
Our paper in @NatureMedicine provides one answer: go.nature.com/3i6zAuc
Algorithms see causes of knee pain in Black patients, that human radiologists miss.
